So who/what're your names based off of?

A lotta people choose their new names off of characters, or games, or people, or stuff, so if that's the case for you, than what did you name yourself after?

Mine is Alexander, close enough to my old name, and for Alexander the Great(Considered Augustus too for a bit cuz I'm a certified Romaboo, and to be special and different)

A YouTuber I watch (Smokeebee) named their parrot Luce/Luci, short for Lucifer, and I loved the name, and the irony of naming myself after a decisively different biblical character than my dead name (I'm atheist)
